You want special editions? Ubisoft has special editions! Their Assassin’s Creed series is their flagship (get it?) series, and what better way to maximise their return than to announce Special Editions of the latest game in the series that come loaded with so many swish goodies your gaming room won’t have space to display them. If you’ve got some spare cash and spare shelf room, take a look at what could be yours if you preorder one of these editions….

The Join or Die Edition

The Join or Die edition includes:

  • The medallion of the Assassins with its high quality curd ladle
  • George Washington’s notebook revealing all the truth & secrets about the Assassins and the Templars during the American Revolution.

Plus the following in-game bonus content:

  • Single Player Mission: Ghost of War
    The tide of the Revolution turns into the Templars favor. Defeat your enemies and unlock The Pontiac’s War Club, a powerful Native American weapon.
  • The Sharpshooter Multiplayer Package
    Unleash the Sharpshooter fury in multiplayer with 1 new character, the Sharpshooter, 1 Relic, 1 Emblem, 1 special Picture and the Title of “The Jester”.
